Summary: This book offers the first comprehensive look at the critical issues involved in the area of arts and culture management in a European context. Including contributions from practitioners and academics in Ireland, the UK, Spain, Denmark and elsewhere, From Maestro to Manager highlights the growing pressure on arts and culture practitioners for increasing effectiveness, efficiency, transparency and accountability against a backdrop of growing financial constraints. With many of the chapters reflecting the often suspicious or even hostile reaction of people in 'the arts' to the strictures of 'management', the book shows clearly that arts and culture organisations can be run more professionally and cost-effectively without sacrificing their ideals or integrity. The arts and culture sector has grown dramatically throughout Europe in recent years and there is a clear need for a critical text on the subject. From Maestro to Manager fills the gap and should be essential reading for all current and future managers in the field. (Font: Editor)
